Demon’s Diary

Chapter 1278: Covet

Mo Tian was moved. A hint of gloominess flashed in his eyes. He said indifferently, “Although you have demonic qi in you, you are not a real demon after all. The Celestial Tablet is an immortal magic weapon of the demon race after all. Besides, you didn’t know its unique refining method, so it isn’t strange that you couldn’t refine it.”

“Oh, really only these 2 reasons? You said before that the Celestial Tablet is your natal magic weapon. When I controlled it just now, why didn’t I feel the slightest sluggishness? I hope Senior Mo Tian can solve my doubt. “Liu Ming said calmly.

Hearing this, Mo Tian pondered for a moment, then he sighed suddenly,

“It seems that it’s really impossible to hide anything from you! Yes, you are able to use the Celestial Tablet flexibly, because I did some tricks. When I merged the true demon blood into your body, I merged part of my blood into your body too. As you just said, the Celestial Tablet is my natal magic weapon. If you want to exert the power of the Celestial Tablet, you must possess part of my bloodline power.”

“What is your purpose in doing this?” Liu Ming’s face turned livid upon hearing this.

“What purpose do I have? It’s just so that you can control the Celestial Tablet smoothly. For the common goal of you and me, the dangers we will experience in the future far exceed your imagination. If we don’t increase our strength as much as possible, I’m afraid we will soon fall here.” Mo Tian said calmly.

Hearing this, Liu Ming thought quickly.

For the high-sounding reason of Mo Tian, he didn’t believe it at all, but his knowledge was too far from Mo Tian’s. He couldn’t guess what Mo Tian was thinking at all.

Countless thoughts flashed through Liu Ming’s mind. Mo Tian just looked at Liu Ming without speaking.

“Only this time. Next time, if senior does anything to my body again, even if I have to die together with you, I will never let you go.” Liu Ming took a deep breath and said.

“You are overthinking. You and I share 1 life now, how dare I make fun of my own life.” Mo Tian said with a half smile.

Liu Ming snorted, waved his hand, and launched a black light net to wrap Mo Tian’s figure.

With a flash of black light, Mo Tian was forcibly pulled back by Liu Ming. At the same time, Liu Ming placed several seals on the place where Mo Tian was staying, trapping Mo Tian’s soul power.

But Mo Tian was connected with his soul now. These seals could only restrict Mo Tian from coming out of his body, but they couldn’t completely imprison him at all.

Inside Liu Ming, Mo Tian let out a low and indifferent laugh, then he fell silent.

Liu Ming stood silently in mid-air and his face changed for a long while, then he let out a long breath.

Compared with Mo Tian and other monsters who had lived for countless years, he was far behind in terms of intelligence and vision. Now that he was in the Thousands Demons Continent Mo Tian was familiar with, he always felt like being led by the nose, but he was helpless.

Now that the matter had reached this point, he could only secretly be on guard against Mo Tian.

As Mo Tian said, he had initially grasped the power of the immortal magic weapon Celestial Tablet, which increased his combat power a lot.

His glanced at the Celestial Tablet for a while, then he flew into the cave and planned to refine this weapon and increase his combat power as much as possible.

At this moment, the cave below suddenly trembled violently. An incomparably thick silver light shot out.

The natural aura was also violently stirred. In the sky above the cave, large black clouds emerged and gathered into a black cloud vortex with a radius of tens of miles. The cave blow was gloomy under the black clouds.

A huge suction force came from the black vortex, gathering the natural aura within a radius of a hundred miles. Rumbling thunder flashed in the vortex.

Seeing this situation, Liu Ming was startled for a moment, then he was joyful.

He was no stranger to the phenomenon, because he also experienced this not long ago. Xie’er, who had stagnated at the Real Pellet State perfect stage for a long time, finally began to advance towards the Celestial State.

The huge black air vortex turned faster and faster, then a large piece of black spiritual cloud fell into the cave.

Every time a spiritual cloud fell, the aura of Xie’er would become stronger.

Judging from the current situation, the progress of Xie’er’s advance was relatively smooth. It didn’t take long for a small half of the spiritual clouds to fly down.

Seeing the falling speed of the spiritual clouds in mid-air, Liu Ming secretly heaved a sigh of relief, then glanced around, moved to a nearby mountain peak, and be on guard.

It was impossible to forcibly cover up such a large momentum. Although this was the depth of Dong Lu Mountain Range, it was difficult to guarantee that it would not attract the attention of others.

But with his current strength, as long as it didn’t attract the Mystic Comprehending State powerhouse, he could handle any situation by himself.

Thinking of this, Liu Ming sat down cross-legged and expanded his Divine Thought.

As time passed bit by bit, the black spiritual clouds all fell into the cave.

A sharp sound came from the cave, then a wave of silver spiritual light emerged from the cave. This spiritual light contained an extremely pure spirit. The ground shook violently as if it had been impacted by something.

While the silver light whistled, it gradually condensed into a giant silver scorpion aspect with the size of tens of meters.

The giant scorpion waved the giant pincers lightly, easily setting off countless spiritual power vortexes around it. The huge spiritual power fluctuations spread. A large black cloud appeared in the sky again.

But this time the black clouds were quite different from the previous ones. It exuded a murderous intent. There was a muffled thunder from within the black clouds, and golden lightning arcs shuttled through the thunderclouds. The lightning would strike at any time.

“Golden thunder tribulation…” Liu Ming looked at the thunderclouds with a gloomy face, then he looked at the giant scorpion with some worry.

However, the giant scorpion phantasm aspect did not have the slightest fear of the thunderclouds. It proudly raised its giant pincers, raised its head and roared unyieldingly at the thunderclouds.

The thunderclouds in the sky were getting bigger and bigger. Countless golden lightning arcs struck at the giant scorpion aspect.

The giant scorpion aspect let out a roar and swung its giant pincers. A cluster of silver clouds was condensed above.

The golden lightning arcs hit the silver clouds, making sizzling sounds. The silver clouds looked thin, but it unexpectedly blocked all the golden lightning arcs.

Seeing this scene, Liu Ming’s expression relaxed.

Suddenly, he looked in a certain direction. A wave of purple light emerged in his pupils. He used his newly obtained Purple-Patterned Demonic Pupils.

Hundreds of miles away, a black escape light and a purple escape light were flying toward here.

The demonic qi fluctuations emitted by the 2 escape lights were extremely strong. Both were at the Celestial State!

Liu Ming chanted, and a green light flashed on his shoulder, then he blent into the surroundings as if disappearing.

After a few seconds, the 2 escape lights came and faded, revealing 2 demon cultivators.

Among the 2, one was a young man with red hair and a red robe. He had a haughty look on his face.

The other was the man in a black robe who looked only in his thirties. He had an inch-long beard on his chin, and he looked quite elegant.

When they saw Xie’er’s aspect fighting against the thunder tribulation, they showed a gleam of joy.

“Brother Ye, we didn’t gain much in Dong Lu Mountain Range this time, but we are still lucky to find a demonic beast that is advancing! Hehe, I’m still short of a powerful demonic pet. Let me subdue it and show off after you get back.” The red-haired young man laughed loudly, and he was about to make a move.

“Wait!” The man in a black robe stopped the red-haired young man, then he launched a swift purple light into the empty space.

Boom! The purple light suddenly shattered!

A figure emerged after a flash of black light. It was Liu Ming.

The red-haired young man’s face suddenly became extremely ugly. Liu Ming was diagonally in front of them. If he had just made a rash move, he might have been ambushed by Liu Ming at this moment.

“Who are you? Why are you ambushing us here?” The man in a black robe took a step forward, looked Liu Ming up and down, and said in a deep voice.

“Hehe, it should be me who asks this. My demonic pet is going through the thunder tribulation, so I hope you 2 can back off now.” Liu Ming said faintly to the man in a black robe.

The red-haired young man was at the Celestial State early stage, which was the same as him. The man in a black robe had a slightly higher cultivation than him, which was the Celestial State intermediate stage, but he could actually see through the concealment of Che Huan Totem. He wasn’t an easy opponent.

“Oh, your demonic pet? Hehe, what proof do you have?” The man in a black robe waved his hands and put them behind his back, then he said faintly.

While speaking, a bean-sized black light dot emerged in his palm, then it silently vanished into the space.

“Brother Ye, why bother talking nonsense with this man! Just kill him and grab the demonic pet.” A tyrannical look appeared on the face of the red-haired young man. Before the man in a black robe could speak, he turned into large fireball and rushed toward Liu Ming.

Before the fireball approached Liu Ming, an intense heat came first.

This seemingly ordinary flame actually contained an unimaginably high temperature. Wherever the fireball passed, the space seemed to be distorted by the burning.
